“You just made that up!”

“Nope. I have the T-shirt and everything.”

“I want to see it.”

“I’m afraid you can only see it when you believe.” He winked at her.

They walked through the baby area, which both intrigued and terrified her. She didn’t think her Little went that young. Well, with the exception of maybe trying a pacifier. And a bottle. They seemed like they would be quite soothing.

They explored baby seats for the car, high chairs for eating, and even attachments for existing chairs that a big Little boy or girl could be strapped into.

“Hmm, these are interesting.” Hack studied the high chairs. “They might keep you sitting still long enough for me to feed you.”

She grabbed his hand and dragged him along. No need for him to get ideas.

The next area was filled with punishment implements. She tried to pull him through that area quickly. “Come on, I’ve seen the area I want to go to.”

“Oh, but this is interesting.” He picked up a leather paddle.

“Feel free to test anything you like the look of,” Bonnie called out as she strode past the area with a smile. “There’s a discipline room at the back. I didn’t want to put it in, but I got pressured into it.”

She noticed that Hack was using the tablet. He wasn’t putting that on a wishlist, was he?

“Let’s go,” Greer said urgently.

Finally, they made it to the toy area. Much safer. Her gaze went immediately to the soft toys.

“Go,” he said. “You can look at everything you like.”

“I’ll be quick.”

“Why would you want to be quick?” he asked.

“I’m sure you don’t want to spend much time here.”

“Then you’d be wrong,” he told her. “I’m not on the rotation for a couple of days. And I have nowhere I’d rather be than here with you. Now go.” Turning her, he gave her a very firm pat on the ass.

She glared back at him.

He just grinned.

Lord, he was terrible.

Hack glanced over at Greer.

She was uncharacteristically quiet as she sat in the passenger seat. In her arms, she held the large octopus stuffie she’d chosen.

He had a feeling it wasn’t her first choice. He’d kept seeing the way her gaze went to the Care Bears.

But she hadn’t chosen one and he wasn’t sure why.

“Where are we going?” she asked, growing tense as he headed a different way out of the parking lot of LittleLand.

“I need to go home for a bit. Is that all right?”

“Oh, of course. But wouldn’t it make sense to drop me off first?”
